Vietnam alarm at documents purge

Vietnam yesterday called on the government to guarantee the legal rights of Vietnamese migrants living here after immigration officials last week said they would revoke the invalid documents of 70,000 immigrants, most of them ethnic Vietnamese.

Le Thi Thu Hang, spokeswoman for Vietnam’s Foreign Ministry, said she hoped the government would take appropriate measures to guarantee the legal and legitimate rights of ethnic Vietnamese in the country.

“We hope that while people are waiting for their legal documents to be completed, they will be able to maintain a stable life and continue contributing to Cambodia’s socio-economic development,” she added.

Last week, immigration authorities said they would seize documents issued improperly to 70,000 people, most of them ethnic Vietnamese, but they have not threatened their forcible removal.
